what if the color of the plasma means something? like...purple would be the deadliest, because it's closer to ultraviolet, and red would be the hottest, because it's closer to infa red? like...green would be the median, and blue would be right next to purple...but since the covenant don't have purple, blue was the next best thing....yeah...my point is this:
what if the colors correspond the the electromagnetic spectrem? I doubt the covenant would willingly get reinbow colors for ammunition. bright, funkey colored plasma would give away your position. If the color didn't matter, then wouldn't the covenent just use one plasma color?
or am I just reading into things too much?

I don't know, but i believe it was another races weapon, that the covenant overtook and took all of their technology. I wouldn't like the different colors though, isn't 2 plasma rifles enough?

well, there's already red, green, blue, and...purple from ghosts (just remembered)

If you have read the Halo 2 Instruction Manual has it for the Plasma Pistol and I think the LE Halo 2 Manual has it all for the weapons but I am not sure.

The Plasma Pistol is labled as such:

Plasma Pistol:

Core Output Power 100-150 KV : 2-3 Da

and I don't think it is to far off to think that the color is associated with its Output level.

...and don't you think the power of the plasma would correspond to the electromagnetic spectrum?
